“Why on earth should I worry? The earth that I know
May not even exist in a short time from now.
Do my crises reflect those of society?
If so then don’t I have every reason to be
Petrified? I’m a victim of myself somehow.
How can I be relieved of my incessant woe?”

Many people just let life come at them and they
Just respond to it so if it’s something wanted
They respond positively. The reverse also
Is significant. Tough situations can throw
One into negativity. It could be said
That to just respond to life leads to one’s dismay.

You’re supposed to have control. You’re the creator
Of your own life experience. The condition
Of the world is not something to worry about
And you’re not here to figure that kind of thing out.
Concentrate on whatever on earth can be done
To uplift you. You’re an energy translator.

Do your living deliberately. Take control
Of you moment by moment. The more that you care
About just feeling better the better you feel.
You can make of the real world one that is ideal
Simply by your being more consciously aware
Of the spirit within you which can make you whole.
